	Part of the Neu Potsdam holdings is the Adlerfelsen section of the Anderman Asteroid Belt, which was a gift to the Freiherr by the Emperor to help support the economy of the barony upon its establishment. The Adlerfelsen Mining, Ltd was established as a wholly owned company of the Zoeller family and consists of multiple extraction, refining, and distribution facilities. While not rich in precious metals and gemstones, this section of the belt nonetheless supplies a large number of rare earths used in the molycirc industry as well as for shipboard weapons systems used by the Imperial Andermani Navy.

	===Koebel Scout Reservation===		===Koebel Scout Reservation===

	Named for Eberhard Koebel, an Old Earth German Scout leader, the Andermani Scouts Association's Koebel Scout Reservation is among the oldest continuous Scouting and youth recreational facilities on the planet. The reservation makes up fully 15% of the entire land mass of the barony and sits astride both the Havel river and the Kaiserkrone Mountain Range. Hosting Scouts from across the Empire and beyond, the reservation is highly popular. Every year, each Anderman Scout who obtains the coveted highest rank of Pfadfinderinnen or Pfadfinder<ref>[[wikipedia:Bund_der_Pfadfinderinnen_und_Pfadfinder\|Bund der Pfadfinderinnen und Pfadfinder]]</ref> is invited to a mass camporee on the reservation’s grounds. Freiherr Neu Potsdam is widely acknowledged to be one of the Empire’s strongest patrons of the youth movement and underwrites the entire event from the barony’s privy purse. More often than not, the Emperor himself will make a ‘surprise’ visit during the event to congratulate and encourage the youth who will make up the backbone of the Empire in the future.

	‘Neu Potsdam’ has, however, persisted as an eponymously named area and city immediately outside of the planetary capital city of Zizhulin and is therefore part of the Imperial Metropolitan Region. The administrative seat of the barony sits on the river Havel, a tributary of the Elbe, downstream of Zizhulin and the Sorgenfrei Palace, and lies embedded in a hilly morainic landscape dotted with many lakes, around 20 of which are located within Neu Potsdam’s city limits.<ref>[[wikipedia:Potsdam\|Potsdam]]</ref>		‘Neu Potsdam’ has, however, persisted as an eponymously named area and city immediately outside of the planetary capital city of Zizhulin and is therefore part of the Imperial Metropolitan Region.
